GLUE THE SMALL POSTS EXACTLY IN PLACE AS THEY BROKE OFF ,DRILL A HOLE VERTICALLY THROUGH THE POSTS ,SAME SIZE AS HOLE IN THE SS WHASHER, (HOLE OF THE SCREWS)ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE BACKPLATE ,INSTALL A STAILLESS SCREW WITH HEAD ON THE REAR OF THE BACKPLATE AND NUT ON THE WASHER SIDE TRIM TO EXACT LENGHT USE LOCKTITE FOR NUT.
